Editor's Notes
This study was carried out as a part of state wide survey for the Government of Uttar Pradesh by the Department of Community Medicine, M.L.N. Medical College, Allahabad in the selected Districts of Uttar Pradesh.
Recently delivered women who gave birth during last two years in 1st round of survey & with in last 1 year in 2nd year.Further questions relating to routine immunization were separately asked for children age 12-23 months.
So new born care practices & immunization coverage in uttar pradesh is very poor & Govt. of india has launched RCH-ii programme in which emphasis is on education to mothers on breast feeding and routine immunization of children against 6 vaccine preventable diseases. Under the umbrella of NRHM which was launched in 2005, Janani Suraksha Yojna is there to promote institutional deliveries, IMNCI to improve the management of childhood & neonatal illness. Let us have a hope that the situation will improve in near future.
